SALOMON ghost,pro model,kreation,
DALLBELLO pro model, cross, il moro, rampage.

So im thinking solomon creations or pro models any ideas

see which boots fits you best first, then go from there...from a skier type standpoint I would say ghosts, but its up to you. Most of those boots are pretty similar in flex and fit.

go to a shop and try them on man

odds are that both salomon and dalbello will not fit you. Dalbello fits typically skinnier feet while salomon fits typically wider feet

That should cut your list in half. iIf both fit your in luck man and you just have more to pick from.

yep..it's almost impossible for you to fit into a krypton last and a SPK last - almost a CM difference in width

Ghost, IL Moro, Kross, and Krypton are all the same last and fit pretty much the same, dalbello being a little bit more snug

The SPK Pro is 8 mm wider and is not the same as the above, as for Kaos and Kreation, i don't know the last so i can't help with those two boots.

I got fitted in ghosts, Kross, and IL Moro, and the IL Moro was defiantely my favorite of all three, and the tight fit can all be fixed by molding the ID liners.

depends about which type of foot you have, wide or narrow. salomon's, especially the spk's run for a wider foot whereas dellbello's usually are a nicer fit for a narrower foot. but yeah, go try both companies on and see which you think feels better.
